The School of Christian Ministry

The School of Christian Ministry (S.O.C.M) is a course run by Christchurch Durham aiming to train Christchurch students in a wide range of ministry skills, equipping them for the Durham harvest field and beyond.  Each week at S.O.C.M. Tony will be training us in various aspects of Christian Discipleship including:

 

• What is Ministry?
• Welcoming Newcomers to Church
• 1-to-1 Ministry
• Reading the Bible with a Non-Christian
• First Contact Evangelism
• Running a Dialogue Supper
• How to run a CE Course
• Speaking at Evangelistic Events

...as well as many other aspects of Christian Ministry.

The course helps with the principles, as well as giving hands-on opportunities with feedback.  Each member of S.O.C.M is part of a ministry team under the supervision of a ‘Ministry Coach' to help with their training.

S.O.C.M. meets on a Wednesday evening from 5-6:00pm in the Bailey Rooms.  Please contact the Church Office for more information.
